Fantastic food , friendly lovely staff! A great night out!!

As always, the following and service were excellent in lovely, quirky surroundings. As it was a Tuesday night it was a little quieter than usual but still a nice atmosphere. One of our favourite eating places!

5 star

The food was delicious and the staff were very friendly and professional! Great place in Oxton that's good value for money, would recommend!

Hi - we had a lovely meal on Sunday at the 7.00 pm sitting. The only niggle was that it felt like the staff were very keen for us to finish and leave. We were served quickly and our dishes removed almost before we were finished ! We were not offered any dessert and we had to ask a member of staff if there were any - the only staff around were busy tidying up one of the rooms after a group had left. However the staff were always friendly and the food was delicious as always - we will still be back and recommend the food to others.

Great food, good portions, proper Sangria lovely staff and very pretty decor. We had a really lovely time

I love this place. In terms of Spanish tapas it's the real deal, authentic and run by people who know what Spanish tapas should be. The food is good and I always want to order everything on the menu so I'm going to have to keep going back! If I were to criticise anything (reluctantly) it would be the quality of the churros. But I lived in Madrid and ate churros from their churrerias so I know how good they can be when they're made fresh. I may be wrong but I think they might be a frozen version and not freshly made which is why they're a but on the dense side, but we still ate the whole lot, what's not to like about deep fried dough covered in sugar and dipped in chocolate?! Can't wait fir my next visit!

We had a fabulous end of holiday meal with our family of 7. We had planned to go to Majorca, but were unable to so came to Macclesfield instead, and had a lovely time! The wonderful tapas and paella suited all dietary requirements of the party and we enjoyed the sangria too. Sitting outside in the secret garden was lovely with comfortable seating. The service was quick and attentive with friendly staff. Thoroughly recommend this to anyone .

Our first visit didn't disappoint! Gorgeous food and generous portions with service from great staff. We will definitely be dining there again.

We live in Prestbury and we’ve been going here for a few years. The owners and the people are lovely. Just go there!!!

We went for the first time on 27/08/21. Really enjoyed our evening - lively atmosphere, friendly staff and good food and wine at a reasonable price. Will definitely return.

Superb find down a side street in Macc. Lovely food, great service and an all round lovely evening. Will be going back as superb value for money.

Great tasting food, fantastic choices, very welcoming and attentive staff at very reasonable price. I would highly recommend this restaurant...

As by Sheena’s review. Felt like being in Spain!

This was the second time we'd been to the Lilac Cottage and both times the food has been excellent, especially the tapas. It's beautifully decorated inside and the staff are all first class and very friendly. The price is very reasonable and overall a great choice for dining out. Highly recommended.

Really enjoyed our meal here and would absolutely come again. Only minor issue was when we arrived, the lady seating us (we had booked and arrived on time) was clearly unhappy with something and appeared to have difficulty seating us, audibly stating to another staff member " do you see what I have to deal with" which didn't make us feel particularly welcome. Aside from this, the food was lovely and the waitress serving us was polite and attentive.
